FYI

I see the Washington Post is platforming an op-ed by Krisi Noem, because apparently they're still pissed they missed their opportunity to publish Goebbels in the original German.

What I fear Trump will do with his new war with Iran https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-i-fear-trump-will-do-with-his

This is the only explanation that makes sense.

Congress didn’t just lose its power it gave it away. On war, trade, and policy, lawmakers have willingly let the executive branch rule unchecked.

Don't forget that last Wednesday, @hugolowell.bsky.social reported that Trump knew that bunker busters wouldn't completely destroy the sites. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

This is pretty stupid considering the government is offering release and possible asylum for two, maybe three undocumented *convicted* smugglers who are actually members of MS-13 in exchange for their testimony. Someone should ask Blackburn if that's okay.

“This is very much connected to the rise of authoritarianism that we’ve seen across the country,” said the executive director of the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center. “They can’t win fairly, so they’re trying to rewrite the rules to get their way.” By @jeremykohler.bsky.social

BIG NEWS: Gov. Greg Abbott has vetoed Texas’ highly controversial THC ban, 30 minutes before the deadline.

✅Illegal & expensive Tariff War ✅Illegal & callous decimation of the federal workforce. ✅Illegal invasion of Iran. REMIND ME, again… who are the “ILLEGALS?”

Attacking Iran fits with Trump’s desire to divert attention from his failures at home: his losses in the courts, his unpopular budget bill, millions of people protesting against his authoritarianism. When he feels humiliated, he gets reckless. Understand what's going on.

I have to ask: did the government change this birthdate to try and prove Mr. Abrego had a minor in the car during the 2022 traffic stop? It looks like it was changed from 2001 to 2007, doesn't it? The trump administration has done this before...

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Wow so you’re telling me everyone who cheered on the Iraq war is on board with this now too? And so are the people who opposed the Iran nuclear deal and killed it? You’re kidding.

If the president does it, it's not a leak. He's just telling you.

MAGA Friday: No new wars! MAGA Saturday: Ok bombings but no regime change! MAGA Sunday: There’s really no other solution than regime change.

Idk who needs to hear this but red state folks are already cannon fodder. While rural people make up less than 25% of the general population, we make up almost 45% of military recruits. Also, over 40% of Missourians voted for Kamala. This video sucks on a lot of levels.

Pope Leo condemns US bombing Iran

KTLA - Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all US Marines, pepper-sprayed and punched in the face by alleged federal immigration officers while he was working as a landscaper at an IHOP. He was then forced into the back of an unmarked car in Santa Ana.

Beyond parody.

They’re preemptively trying to blame Biden for any attacks on Americans that result from Trump’s war. Absolutely desperate.

"Regime change is good now"

Iran’s FM responds to the overnight attack

Bill Clinton and other retired establishment Dems do actually criticize Trump often. But usually in unmemorable ways. So it sometimes feels like the only thing they do is criticize progressives/back moderates. I wish they figured out ways to combine their clout with creativity in attacking Trump.

A lot of people are rightly saying, so what, no one is going to stop Trump. That's true, in the short term. It's also true that the order put in place after WWII is collapsing.

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

Is it too late to give Sacha Baron Cohen an Oscar for this? Not a damn lie told. 🇺🇸

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

I sure would love to see all the democrats in Congress on the Capitol steps calling for impeachment in one voice. I know we can't do it without republican votes, but it sure would be nice to see a loud, unified message. I'll be calling my reps today and asking them to please do this. Join me.

No money for Medicaid or SNAP or museums or schools or sidewalks or gun violence prevention or art or libraries. Always money for war.

We are being lied to

Trump now calling for a regime change in Iran. Just FYI.

Massie on Trump's Iran strikes: "There was no imminent threat to the United States, which would authorize that."

🚨 TRUMP ENDORSES REGIME CHANGE IN IRAN, CALLS TO 'MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN'

It’s okay. People only care about the price of eggs.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."  -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

Fox News is pre-blaming Biden for a terrorist attack

Anyway! Don't give in to defeatism! Look around at how many people feel the same way as you right now. Trite as it might sound, togetherness is strength.
